Geocoding parameters

Guidewire provides the following configuration parameters in the config.xml file that relate to geocoding.

For information on editing config.xml and setting configuration parameters, see Working with configuration parameters.

`ProximityRadiusSearchDefaultMaxResultCount`

The maximum number of results to return if performing a radius (within n miles or kilometers) proximity search. This parameter has no effect on ordinal (nearest n items) proximity searches.

Default: 1000

`ProximitySearchOrdinalMaxDistance`

A distance that provides an approximate bound to improve performance of an ordinal (nearest n items) proximity search. This distance is in miles, unless you set UseMetricDistancesByDefault to true. This parameter has no effect on radius (within n miles or kilometers) proximity searches or walking-the-group-tree-based proximity assignment.

Default: 300

`UseGeocodingInPrimaryApp`

If true, PolicyCenter enables searching for nearby locations in the Reinsurance Management user interface. ContactManager does not respond to this parameter.

Default: false

`UseMetricDistancesByDefault`

If true, PolicyCenter uses kilometers and metric distances instead of miles and United States distances for location searches. Set this parameter identically in both PolicyCenter and ContactManager.

Default: false
